Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
Taylor and Richard Burton starred in a run of Noe¨l Coward's "Private Lives" at the Wilshire Theatre (later the Saban Theatre). Unlike Taylor's dressing room at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in Manhattan, her dressing room at the Wilshire was not redone for the run due to space limitations.
Photograph caption dated October 13, 1983 reads, "Elizabeth Taylor ... her dressing room is mundane."
